Sounds like a number of people got a spam email from me. I changed passwords and all that, though I also learned that it may not be from me-- they hijack some other account and then send out emails claiming to be from the addresses in that person's mailbox.

Anyway, if you get something that looks sketchy from me, it probably isn't from me!

New and vigorous impulses seem to me to be at work in it,[the cinema] and doubtless before long it will drop all slavish copying of the stage and strike out along fresh paths. -- Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree

Mike, if I recall, the spam I got "from you" the other day was from a gmail account. A few minutes ago I got a warning email on one of my gmail accounts that someone tried to log in to my account. I wonder if that happened to you too. Here's the email I got from Google:

Someone recently used your password to try to sign in to your Google Account @gmail.com" [censored by me for this post]. This person was using an application such as an email client or mobile device.

We prevented the sign-in attempt in case this was a hijacker trying to access your account. Please review the details of the sign-in attempt:

If you do not recognize this sign-in attempt, someone else might be trying to access your account. You should sign in to your account and reset your password immediately.

I'm sure you know this, but for other people, when you get an email like that asks you to log in to them (bank, email, etc.), even if you're very sure it's real, it's always best to go to the site manually and log in rather than click on a link in the email, just in case.

Or you can call. Earlier this year, when I was away from home, I got an alarming sounding email claiming problems with my Paypal account. Since I never use Paypal, let alone any banking or online ordering, except on my home computer, I called them up. The email turned out to be a total scam.
